THE NEW AMERICAN (PACIFIC) CENTURY


The US' Humanitarian Mission

So much attention has been paid to the American imperialist design in the Middle East. This is just a tip of the iceberg, according to the article by Activist Post reproduced below. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has this month published in the Foreign Policy Magazine an article entitled America's Pacific Century, spelling out the US' declaration of intent for American "leadership" in into the next century, with the facade of "human rights" thrown in.

The target is Asia, not the Middle East. The US presence in the Middle East and its control over the latter's immense oil resources are designed to assuage the rise of Asia. The recent US-NATO's brutal interventions in the Arab Spring represent a globalist blitzkrieg that signals the largest geopolitical reordering since World War II - a reordering that will shift its focus to Asia.

While we in Malaysia across the political divide are so engrossed - perpetually it seems - in gutter politics, blame game, and what not, we should not be oblivious to the US' imperialist plans right in our own backyard.



Hillary Clinton and the New American (Pacific) Century
By Tony Cartalucci, Activist Post.


Secret no more, US moves openly to block the rise of China.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton recently published in Foreign Policy magazine, "America's Pacific Century," a Hitlerian declaration of imperial intent for American "leadership" in Asia for the next 100 years. The piece, which could just as easily been penned by Neo-Con policy makers begins with, "the future of politics will be decided in Asia, not Afghanistan or Iraq, and the United States will be right at the center of the action."

Of course, America's presence throughout the Middle East and the control it exercises over the region's oil resources, as well as over the region as a logistical hub, is essential in tempering the rise of Asia and ultimately hemming in the rise of China and Central Asia. The "Arab Spring" which Secretary Clinton and the US State Department had been a part of preparing, equipping, training, and even arming for at least 2 years prior, is the coup de grĂ¢ce meant to completely overturn the multi-polar nature of the Middle East and ultimately the world.

Upon reading Clinton's declaration of intent for American leadership into the next century, readers may recall the similarly named, ranting "Project for a New American Century" signed off on by some of America's most notorious Neo-Conservatives, which almost verbatim made the same case now made by Clinton. In fact, America's evolving confrontation with China, marked acutely by Obama's announcement of a permanent US military presence in Australia just this week, is torn directly from the pages of decades-old blueprints drawn up by corporate-financier funded think-tanks that truly rule America and its destiny.

As reported in June, 2011's "Collapsing China," as far back as 1997 there was talk about developing an effective containment strategy coupled with the baited hook of luring China into its place amongst the "international order." Just as in these 1997 talking-points where author and notorious Neo-Con policy maker Robert Kagan described the necessity of using America's Asian "allies" as part of this containment strategy, Clinton goes through a list of regional relationships the US is trying to cultivate to maintain "American leadership" in Asia.

For example, the recently reinstalled Wall Street proxy regime in Thailand led by Thaksin Shinawatra and his sister Yingluck, has received reassurances by Clinton herself just this week stating that, "it is in the national security and political interest of the United States to have this government succeed." As reported in-depth in "CONFIRMED: Thailand's "Pro-Democracy" Movement Working for US," Thaksin Shinawatra and his political regime have had long-standing, well-documented ties to Wall Street and London. The US backing of puppet-regimes like Thaksin, installing them into power, and keeping them there is central to projecting power throughout Asia and keeping China subordinate, or as [Robert] Kagan put it in his 1997 report, these proxy regimes will have China "play Gulliver to Southeast Asia's Lilliputians, with the United States supplying the rope and stakes."

It is essential to look past the empty rhetoric of "democracy," "human rights," and "progress" used to justify foreign-funding and meddling to install servile autocrats like Thailand's Thaksin or Malaysia's stooge dictator-in-waiting Anwar Ibrahim and see the greater geopolitical game at play and the disastrous conclusion it is leading us all toward. It is also essential to expose the disingenuous organizations, institutions, and media personalities helping promote this global corporate-fascist agenda. [Note: The aforementioned link on Anwar relates to Bersih 2.0. That linked article described Bersih as a foreign-funded movement for a foreign-serving agenda, and has been translated to Malay by AIDC here. Anwar's foreign links and fundings have already been extensively covered by AIDC.]

Above all, it is important not to allow ourselves and our countrymen to be manipulated and their lives wasted in the inevitable conflicts that are sure to arise as Wall Street and London struggle to maintain, or even expand their global financial, economic, and military hegemony.
